Awe

by Siri Lipscomb

 
               Awe
 
Awe belies contradiction
Disguised ever fleetingly
Guiding honor into
Justified kinship
Lest memory now
Overcome power
Quietly reassuring silence
Tension unbound vicariously
While xenophiles yielded zilch

This is one of the most cogent abcedarian's I've ever read. It's so much more that a string of 26 esoteric words and the best use of the word 'zilch' I've ever seen. Timely too, or should I say timeless you. For you, heartStar, are inspiration itself, as is your beautifilled Awe.
